Rose Parade - Another advantage to living in Southern California




This is the rival band from back home. We had the joy of yelling "Go Redskins" It was fun to see their faces.


My good friend Melinda. We used to work together at CBU, but she upped and moved to Azusa and now lives in Pasadena.



Most of you guys (yall) know I am not from around here..... hahahaha...... I grew up in Oklahoma and Texas. One of our favorite things to do as a family or at least my mom and I was to watch the Rose Parade on TV. The floats were gorgeous. I was always wishing we could go and see it, but it was always too far away. Well, now I live in So Cal so I can go whenever we are in town. The past two years we have done the whole deal. Adam and some other guy friends sleep on the street while us ladies and children sleep in a warm apartment. Here are a few scenes from today.
